Description

Description

We'll be converting the Message View (Message Reader) to Jetpack Compose. This is part of a larger task to convert all views within the Thunderbolt and K9 apps to use Compose for views.

Design

Design for the first pass should match the current design.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The composable view will be enabled by default.
  • It will reflect the message view as it currently exists with only minor changes to reflect any design changes that are requested (will be detailed in design and tickets)

Research direction

Start by locating the current Message View (Message Reader) in the Thunderbolt and K-9 apps and reviewing the linked Figma design. Compare the existing view with the first-pass design and identify the Compose entry point. Done means the Compose view is enabled by default and matches the current message view, including only specified design changes.
